Protect the front underside of your classic 70 Series
Give your KZJ/LJ Land Cruiser a substantial barrier beneath the front differential, steering bars and radiators. This Almont 8 mm HeavyDuty guard comes in Original and AFN bumper versions for the stated 70, 73 and 77 application.
Choose Original or AFN for the fitted bumper
PDT07A8 is the original-bumper plate, while PDT07A8AFN is the AFN-bumper version. The exact option weights are 11 kg for each. Both use certified AW5083 H111 duralumin; the fitting shape is the reason to choose the correct bumper option.
Why we recommend Almont
Certified AW5083 H111 duralumin gives you substantial, high-strength alloy protection without the material weight of steel of the same size and thickness. The plate will not develop red rust if its surface is scratched, so it is a good choice for a vehicle you intend to keep and use. Wash off mud and road salt to look after the alloy and the separate steel mounting hardware.
Almont has specialised in vehicle protection since 1992, with input from vehicle preparers involved in the Dakar Rally and other rally-raid events. Its protection is designed and manufactured in Spain. You are choosing specialist underbody protection for the parts of your vehicle that have to face the rough ground first.
